Central Point Mode

Select the central point to display.

Defined Central Point

Select to specify that the values entered in the Central Point Longitude and Central Point Latitude fields are taken as the central point of the map.

Current location

Select to specify that this location is the central point of the map when the browser determines the user's current location.

All POIs visible

Select to calculate the central point between several defined points of interest (POIs). If you select this mode but there is only one POI defined, then the default map zoom is taken (instead of calculating it).

Central Point Longitude

Enter longitude coordinates to determine the central point of the map. For example:

0.127759

Central Point Latitude

Enter latitude coordinates to determine the central point of the map. For example:

51.507361

Zoom

1 - 20

Select a value to determine the initial zoom level of the map. Users can change the zoom level on the page.

Level 1 displays the whole map. Higher values mean more zoom.

POI

Select POIs to display on the map.

Width

Enter the width of the map in pixels or percentages. If you do not enter a value, the map takes the width of the selected grid system.

Height

Enter the height of the map in pixels or percentages. If you do not enter a value, the map takes the height of the selected grid system.

POI Type to Component Variant mapping

Select a POI type and a specific rendering variant to connect it to. This enables you to customize the view of POIs differently for each map. For example, you can display all museum POIs with an icon and all parks with a photo.
